Working in Stamford Hill
In Stamford Hill we cover E5, N15 and N16; we also cover Highbury, 1.7 miles away, and Tottenham.
In Stamford Hill, many bathrooms are in flats or converted houses, so we check lease consents, access and the floor below before we price. For Stamford Hill houses with only one bath, we talk through whether to keep it before you decide. We check the floor under the bath during a Stamford Hill survey where we can, because old leaks can leave soft boards.
Supplies across most of Greater London are very hard. If your supply in Stamford Hill is the same, limescale on shower glass and heads is a real issue: easy-clean glass, rub-clean nozzles and a squeegee make a big difference. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Repair or replacement of floorboards where the bath has left them soft or damaged
- A glass enclosure, walk-in panel or frameless screen
- Silicone, a full-flow test and a tidy finish where the new tiling meets the old
- Removal of the bath, panel and taps, and disposal of the waste
Decisions to make first
How much to re-tile
Re-tile just the shower walls, or take the chance to re-tile the whole room so new and old tiles never have to match.
Low tray or level floor
A low-profile tray has a small lip. A level-access floor removes the step altogether but needs a former, tanking and a linear drain.
Rules that apply in England
In England, adding an electric shower usually means a new circuit, which is notifiable under Part P, as is any change to the wiring in the bathroom. Where the conversion is an adaptation for a disabled person, a Disabled Facilities Grant of up to £30,000 may help, but the council must approve it before work starts.
